    This issue is right up there with healthcare as far as the level of stupidity (just not the level of death) because we collectively in the US won’t take a note from other countries that do it better. Plus, you know, respecting human dignity.

    Restrooms don’t need to be gendered in the first place if they give you some damn privacy.

    But as an american I know all too well that private bathrooms means potential small costs for landlords, and the ability for employees to hide and/or drug addicts to shoot up, so half the country would fight the change until their dying breath.

    Yeah they really don’t understand anything related to biology.

    Good thing that DNA, genitals and gender are always 100% correlated right.

    These people are especially interested in children’s genitals. I wonder why?

    Once again my home state making all the worst headlines 🫠

    They recently banned birth cert gender marker changes and I still can’t figure out if that means my current cert is invalid. Now I can’t even pee in my home town without going to prison. I love my hometown it’s like Hobbiton, it’s pretty, people are mostly very kind, it’s a place to go to live a calm life. But it is in Idaho, and is entering into the last stages of a christofascist takeover decades in the making.

    I’ll probably never get to see where I grew up again, sit at the giant fountain, dig in the clay heavy dirt that’s blacker than the roads, or see the breathtaking pink and gold sunsets over the endless hills. I hope the people who took this from me live full of misery followed by an early grave.

    Time to start shipping pee to the GOP lawyer. Unless they’re into that.

    … They probably are.

        Probably a biohazard. Not worth getting “biohazard”-arrested if you’re not sending those fuckers actual biohazards.

      Hey, whoa, cut that out.

      I’m not defending the GOP in any way shape or form. I wish they’d all die in a fire, where hot pokers poke their eyes out as the flames consume their flesh. It STILL wouldn’t be as painful as all the suffering they’ve caused globally for decades.

      All that being said, don’t kink shame as a form of insults. I’M not personally into pee. I tried peeing on an ex once at her request. We both agreed we’re not into it. But SOMEONE is actually into it. And it would be unfair to label them as GOP, because you’ve assigned that as their designated fetish of choice.

      I think a better punishment would be everyone leave Idaho. Why the fuck would you want to live in Idaho??? Why would you want to pay taxes to Idaho??? Why would you want to assosiate with anyone there???

      They should find their population dropping, and anyone who stays deserves to be treated like shit. It’s not THAT far of a drive to Washington, and Oregon. Maybe even California.

        Oh don’t worry I wouldn’t kink shame. Fly your freak flag and all that. I was just dispairing at the notion of what would be an outstanding way to protest… ending up being something they’d be into. It seems the more out there and depraved something is… its just all the more likely a politician is to be doing it.

        'Scept they’re already clearcutting most of WA/OR to be able to cram in endless 5-over-1s to house all the new people, and even then there’s an unbelievable housing crisis. That’s on top of the incredible lack of employment and the crushingly overburdened public services… Plus anywhere decent in those states is going to be the highest cost of living in the country, if not (depending on the metric) the world.

        Moving isn’t cheap and easy, and the popularity of the queer migration to the coast is a huge problem right now. Personally I volunteer with several charities that do housing assistance/placement for queer & disabled folks and waiting lists over the past year and a half have ballooned to more than a thousand times more applicants than we have resources to support. There’s just so, so many more people who want to come here than there is the ability to support.

    Or just show 'em your genitals. Dick… pussy… let them decide. Bonus points if you’re showing them your dick and you pee on them because they wouldn’t let you in the motherfucking bathroom.

    Do you want folks pissing on your business? This is how you get folks pissing on your business.

    I recall a bar in Wimbledon, UK, that is well known for refusing bathroom access and also having human excrement on their wall/alley.

    Not a great look for Wimbledon, a posh town with a globally respected tennis tournament.

        Idk I was there for the tennis tournament three times for work.

        It was not the rose and crown. This was ~13-15 years ago.
